Where’s my Mojo gone?
I had a lovely break albeit a short one, but downing tools meant I lost my Mojo and I’m finding it hard to get back into the swing of things. Take for example this creation – believe you me I’ve had several attempts, and the whole card has been a catalogue of failures but I’m […]
Eclectic Expressions – Stamparatus Repeat Patterns

Cheep….Cheep says the easter chicks!
This card design originated from my lovely upline, Amanda, at one of our Team meetings and I in turn, passed it on to my team – but of course as with most CASE-ing (copy and share everything) I’ve put my own stamp on it. I’ve been putting my fringing scissors to good use lately. […]
